Governor Robert McDonnell has been sentenced to 2 years in prison and 2 years probation.
The judge told him that his wife may have let the serpent into the Governor’s Mansion but he let him into his business affairs.
It’s a sad day for the Old Dominion and its a sad day for the McDonnell family. I would have gone with 6000 hours of community service. I think that would be using McDonnell’s skills for good. Sending him to prison does nothing.
Many people will disagree, but I don’t believe this man belongs in prison. It really serves no purpose.
You will not hear me crying over his wife, however.
